Jim ShawlerRural Building Services

Based in South Suffolk (UK), I construct small rural buildings, for example stables, small barns, field shelters and
fencing etc.
Quotes given with no obligation, please call me on 07905 733 425 to discuss your requirements.
If you have a particular need for a certain type of structure, I specialize in building individual and unique buildings and
I can accommodate you with a design tailored to your requirement.
I have designed and built many equestrian facilities, including stabling, field shelters, gateways and post and rail fencing.
Also, I have
constructed barns, outbuildings and domestic fencing.
I usually build in wood, which is sympathetic to the rural environment and I always try to source renewable materials from
local sawmills.
All wood used is pressure treated to ensure a long service life.

Examples of projects I have completed:
